Hello,
I just wanted to introduce myself and see if anyone has a similiar situation to mine. My name is Elizabeth and I'm 23 yrs. old. I've been married for a year and a half. I have been TTC since August 2005, so that makes 8 months, and nothing! I have very irregular periods. I came off BC in August, and I've had 3 periods. I went to the Dr. and they checked for PCOS, tumors, everything. I had an ultrasound, She said that I just didn't have regular periods and it would just be a guessing game at when I O, which makes TTC extremely difficult. She suggested putting me on Clomid if I didn't conceive by July. What are your thoughts on Clomid? My sister in law had twins on Clomid! Anyway that'll be fine if that's what God wants me to have, Anyway I just need a lil support, and advice! If you are on Clomid what do you think of it? Thanks for listening!
~Elizabeth~

Hi Elizabeth and welcome to JM!!!!! I too have been experiencing irregular period (only had 2 within the last 6 months) and before that my cycles went from being around 32 days long to being over 40. I was just recently tested for PCOS, Premature Ovarian Failure, Thyroid, etc... - all my test came back normal, so in my case my doctor thinks it is a combination of my weight and stress that is is causing me to ovulate irregularly - so she gave me a prescription for Clomid.

This is my first cycle on it, so I really don't know how it will work out - I pray that he will help me O sooner, but I am officially in the wait to see if/when it happens. It has been easy to take and I haven't felt any real side-effects. I know a few ladies on the boards have gotten BFP's on their first cycle and some were trying for a year or more to get pregnant before the clomid.

Good luck!

Hi Elizabeth and welcome! Dh and I have been trying for 11 months now. I came off BCP in May 05 and have had irregular periods since. I have been tested for most everything and so has DH. Next step for us is Clomid to. i'm trying to hold out as i think my body is starting to adjust and get back on track, but Clomid is looking better and better as each month goes by. Good luck to you hon!

Hi and welcome to JM

I am 25 next mth and DB is 43.
We have been ttc~1 for 21mths now
DB has a low motility rate(20%) and i dont always ovulate due to
low levels of progestrone.
It is very difficult for us. I will never give up hope though.

Good luck ttc and i hope you get that bfp soon!

Sarah

Welcome to Jm. My name is Sandy I am 34 and DH JR is 33. I have a DD by a past relationship that just turned 10.

I had been TTC for 13 cycles and the DR finally put me on clomid and I got my BFP the first cycle. I was having my AF and it was between 26-32 days so it was not that bad but I was not ovulating a mature egg and so I could not get pregnant.

There are a lot of ladies that are taking Clomid for the first time this month. I really hope that you get your BFP soon.

Sandy
